Rio Ferdinand: Chelsea are not so special
RIO FERDINAND has cranked up the stakes for Manchester United’s clash with Chelsea on Monday.
Ferdinand says beating rivals Liverpool or Manchester City means more . “I wouldn’t say that Chelsea was one of my favourite games,” the defender said, as United announced a three-year sponsorship deal with India tyre company Apollo.
“The Liverpool and City games are usually hyped up a bit more than anyone else. And the feeling after winning one of those games is probably the biggest of the season.”
